COPS GONE WILD!

So we’re all pretty familiar with tales of police corruption by now (cheers Netflix) but this story is next level. A guy called John Lang from Fresno, California was a little outspoken about how his local police department treated the community. Apparently he’d uncovered a scam Fresno PD had going that involved scanning the number plates on cars whilst they were parked up at a few local businesses.

Lang regularly posted evidence of corruption on Fresno’s local news site ‘Fresnobee’. His IP was logged by an insider on the site which gave his address to the police. This is when all the trouble began — obviously the police weren’t that keen on him blabbing. Luckily Lang had his house rigged up with CCTV cameras and what they captured is astonishing.

A coalition of seventeen organizations has launched an effort to combat the growing Surveillance State by supporting accountability measures in eleven cities across the United States.

On Wednesday, the American Civil Liberties Union and a coalition of sixteen other civil liberties and technology firms announced the beginning of a national effort to combat the growth of secretive surveillance technology. The coalition’s aim is to “stop the unchecked, secret, and too often discriminatory use of surveillance technologies by local police and to move their approval process out of the darkness and into the light.”

In the last 7 years of a corrupt John Key lead National government New Zealand has seen search and surveillance laws ramped up to protect New Zealanders from all of the terrorists. So far the only people who have had these laws and Orwellian powers used against them appear to be political activists who oppose the government and journalists who oppose the government.

The government, under the rule of corrupt liar Prime Minister John Key has been steadily eroding civil liberties and rights in this once free and happy country. Under John Key we have seen police raids against journalists critical of his criminal organisation and a war on journalism in general focussed mainly on any journalist that has spoken against the corrupt National Party or the thug criminal who leads it.

Now we learn of secret Police raids on innocent people where DNA samples were secretly stolen from their home. We can only expect things like this to get worse in this country as the criminals in government are about to sign away our sovereignty to multi national corporate pirates and criminal banker filth.

The Green Party is calling on Police Minister Michael Woodhouse to ensure Police scrap controversial contracts that place onerous restrictions on academic researchers’ access to Police data, the Green Party says.

The Green Party’s call comes following revelations that University of Canterbury sociologist Dr Jarrod Gilbert has been blacklisted from accessing police data and that other academic researchers have been required to sign contracts that give Police the ability to censor research findings.

“This is an absolute outrage – it is as though Police have never heard of the Official Information Act,” said David Clendon, the Green Party’s Police spokesperson.

“This smacks of interference, and the Minister must demand Police stop trying to stymie academic freedom, or face accusations of political interference himself.

The degree of control the police sought over research findings and publications was more than trifling. The research contracts demand that a draft report be provided to police. If the results are deemed to be "negative" then the police will seek to "improve its outcomes". Both the intent and the language would have impressed George Orwell.

Researchers unprepared to yield and make changes face a clause stating the police "retain the sole right to veto any findings from release". In other words, if an academic study said something the police didn't like - or heaven forbid was in any way critical of the police - then the police could stop it being published.

Several people, including news media, have been seeking comment from Nicky Hager and his legal team about the revelation on the weekend that Westpac Bank gave the Police his private banking information (including over 10 months of his banking transactions from all of his accounts).

It is difficult for Mr Hager to comment at this time. The part of his claim that deals with the legality of these Police information requests was deferred during the first hearing and has not yet been argued. However, Mr Hager is keen to clarify the position and answer the public’s questions as much as he is able.

If you challenge the government or attempt to hold them to account over their corrupt doings beware the NZ Police. The Police are an organised criminal gang of thugs whose main purpose in NZ these days is to neutralise political opponents of the government. The intelligence agencies are likewise to be used as weapons to attack and harm anyone standing against the criminals in government.
